[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If this is the case, FCPS RIP. Middle class and upper middle class parents will flee like rats off a sinking ship.[/quote] Sure, white flight. Like when they fled into FCPS from "urban" areas. Same as it ever was, same as it ever was.[/quote] It's not about race, it's about [b]socioeconomic status and educational expectations.[/b] High-achieving, professional class African-American, Hispanic, and Asian parents will flee, too. They don't want their kids exposed to [b]bad influences [/b]and [b]it's not PC[/b] to say, but an 18+ year old should NOT be in a freshman class with 14 year olds. That's absurd! [/quote] So, an immigrant who is poor is, by your definition, a "bad influence," and only lacks education because it wasn't expected of them? Gross and really dumb. Most immigrants who come here are seeking better opportunity, including access to education. Go shake your family tree and see who falls out. I'm pretty sure you'll find at least one illiterate immigrant ancestor. Couch it however you want, or try to hide behind other minorities, who can also exhibit and participate in racism, even against themselves. It doesn't change what this is, and always has been about.
